She has been my best friend for as long as I could remember. Knowing her is a gift, or at least it was. It was hard imagining what I was going to do without her. What was I going to do when it was pouring down rain outside and all you can hear are these millions of bullets hitting the roof of the house? No one would ever amount to how we were together. We were the unstoppable duo, but unfortunately our time was limited. The date was September 24, 2003. I was walking hand in hand with both of my

It’s been a long while since I last visited that place, I don’t know what kept me from going but I just could never bring myself to do so. It was like a moaning howl in the back of my troubled mind and I have had enough of it. I was going to be brave, like I promised her I’d be. And this time I meant it. The place I was heading for wasn’t pretty but it wasn’t ugly either, it was a place full of sad and longing memories. I felt the same way about it as I do with snow, maybe because it reminded me

It was that time of year. The day that we’ve been preparing for, for weeks, months, and even 6:00 a.m practice. This was our chance to show who we are and what we have strived to achieve for as long as I can remember. Sectionals. The most intimidating time of the volleyball season. For many, it isn’t a challenge. Just another typical match against an irrelevant opponent, but to us, it was war. To others, their competition is mediocre and just a match to laugh about. Volleyball is a whole different

ONE There I was, falling asleep again. I’ve been sitting in these damn meetings all summer just rotting away like my bosses prehistoric brain was. My boss, Mr. Harvey Mans, was about 6 foot three, maybe two-hundred and ninety-seven pounds of pure bullshit. I remember the day.. He was looking as jolly as ‘ol Saint Nick himself, three hundred years plus and probably just as old as him too. This guy was getting older every breath he took and could possibly put Jiggly Puff to sleep with his monotone

The University of Virginia Dismissal- December 15, 1826 My time at this university has come to an end. Today will be my last day. My father refuses to assist me in paying back these debts–debts caused by his lack of generosity! I was forced to borrow money from merchants to pay for my schooling! I was left with no other choice but to gamble in order to pay it back! I had no other means to pay it back. He refuses to help me pay back this debt because I had gambled, but it was he who caused me to go

Do you love a commercial that tells you something will work in a split of a second or when you eat or drink a product it will make you skinny or fat? Here is a little story about a commercial of the Intel 360 replay. Their slogan is, it makes everything look epic. Tom Brady (A Super Bowl Champion) wakes up and yawns, brushes his teeth, makes pancakes and as he tosses the pancake in the pan it falls down and he and the dog looks at the fallen pancake and Brady grabs it as the dog is also running to

They wed soon after college. She was about to go to medical school and he had finished college. She wanted to start their lives together, he obliged, and they decided their best course of action was marriage before he was possibly deployed, which occurred two months after. She missed him every second of everyday, and eventually couldn't take it anymore. She figured the best way she could see him was to follow him, leading her to quickly enlisted in the United States Military. They talked on and on

Can Anything Go Great? Hearing my alarm ringing at 6:45, and realizing it was time to go to Guatemala was scary. I have never been out the country before , so knowing that my parents had brought a ticket for me to go visit Guatemala was pretty scary. I was only nine year old when I got sent to Guatemala. Seeing my bag at the door ready for me and my parents getting me ready , talking to me I was so scared but it was time for me to visit my grandma and grandpa. That was the only thing that didn't

The first time I played basketball was like the first time finding myself. I started playing basketball when I was very young and I fell in love with it. I was really really good from a young age, I had an innate ability to play basketball. I had fun dribbling and doing all the dirty work, I liked the running and playing defense I loved every aspect of the game. The first experience I remembered was when I was in 4th grade and it was the champion ship game against Lakeland. Lakeland was always super
